Tomy Knapford is not wide enough to pull this off.

Are these five of those double track two-way point rails? I've only got one (from the Ultimate Set), and I never thought this style of setup was even possible with physical Plarail track.
Sure, the TrackMaster station is somewhat more realistic, but it would've looked better had it been repainted to look like it does in the series. In the series, the station is very, very wide, making the Tomy version more faithful IMO, except it doesn't have the brick walls on the sides (one of which is supposed to house the Fat Controller's office), whereas the TrackMaster does.
Great pickup! I love my knapford, I did have it laid out sideways for a while but takes up too much space on the table so longways suits me better. Love the Splatter & Dodge twin pack! very rare as is Oliver! great lot!

I would LOVE this set here.^^^

*This is irrelevant to above* This is the lot of my dreams! ;w; But, I won't give up. I'm sure there are still some Olivers, Splodges, and Knapfords left in the box out somewhere. Just how much did this lot cost, and how much was the shipping?

Yes they are. Before it is pretty easy to get. Nowadays it is extremely difficult. They only comes in a package and only one per package.

Also each double crossover if I remember correctly is 15 cm in length so you need 45 cm of space just to pull off what I did plus you need more space for knapford station.

I saw a large lot on eBay UK that was local pickup only. I alerted Nigels on it, and he ended up winning the lot. Since he already had an Oliver in the box and a Knapford station in the box, we were able to work out a fair trade. I was able to get hime a few trains from the states, and we worked out the shipping each way. I also had won a different lot on eBay of TnA engines and parts and worked with Nigels to get those shipped over with the lot above. So to put a price on it, I am not sure, but I think we both got a good deal, probably more so in my favor.. Big Grin. Thanks again. @Nigels
Great to see members helping each other out! well done guys Smile

Knapford Station basically new in the box. Looks like maybe setup a few times but most of the clear domes are in the plastic still. Also Oliver which is in near mint condition and Dodge/Splatter.
